I think it would be fine. Mainly because not all the moms at graduation will be dong this. There is a lot that are not even members of our wonderful site. It will certainly make us stand out not to mention that we are wearing the white in honor of them. Just my thought. :))) I am not pushing this by no means, I know we all have our opinions. ::)))))

Ok I've been thinking, this is just a thought, do you think that by us wearing all white to "their" graduation is a joy kill. You know kinda like showing up at a wedding in white and you know the bride wears white. It's their day to shine. So maybe we need to stick with the ribbons on graduation day. Just a thought.

Navy blue tshirts with white ribbon and jeans, capris,skirt, shorts whatever for meet and greet. And all WHITE (dress, skirt, pants, suit, outfit) for graduation, with our red/white/blue ribbon that Kylesproudmom is making for us! Sounds like a plan!!! I'm so excited :-D . Now if it's gets to be too much Kylesproudmom don't hesitate to let us know I don't have a problem getting my on ribbons ;-)

Hopefully we all can agree on this. If anyone else has an idea, let us know soon.
I will need to order the ribbons and also if we are doing t shirts we need to get them ordered by the first of the week, no later.
Let's move ladies. LOL we are almost there!

Kylesproudmom: I think that is a FABOLOUS idea... Those of you that have already bought outfits, we understand if you want to stick to what you have already purchased.. I am a fly by the seat of my pants kinda girl and I have not bought an outfit yet. I think it would be a great tribute for our new Sailors... I am in with the white shirts and red, white and blue ribbions. Thank you for offering to make them... : )))))) That is so gracious of you... Then you can hand them out the night of meet and greet... YIPEEE!!!! Now I dont have to worry about finding anything to wear.. I will wear my navy blue capri pants so it all flows...

Stef/smom- we know they won't be there. We were talking abut both events.
As for the white tops/dresses with the ribbons, that is for graduation. Possibly t-shirts for the meet and greet?
